DEAN’S LETTER “The Meaning of Knowing” As a professor who teaches philosophy and literature, I sometimes contemplate the meaning of knowing. When I say “I Know”, what does it really mean? What do I know about the things that I think I know? This may sound quite silly, however, it is no simple matter. Chuang Tzu, the ancient Chinese classic, discloses the fallacy of sensory conviction that we associate with certainty. What we believe to be the most real and obvious is little more than subjective bias. Let’s read the following example from “Discussion on Making All Things Equal”. Men claim that Mao-ch’iang and Lady Li were beautiful, but if fish saw them they would dive to the bottom of the stream......If so, which knows how to fix the standard of beauty for the world? (Translated by Burton Watson) According to the logic proposed in this argument, our concept of beauty is not based on the object of our aesthetic appreciation but it exists in our subjective cognitive faculty. In other words, the beauty of an object has in fact nothing to do with the form or appearance of the object, and therefore we can never secure precise clue to objectively characterizing our judgment of beauty. In this sense, the basis of our sensory conviction which we assume is the most real and empirical becomes dismantled. Considering the underlying implication of the above quote, it seems that Chuang Tzu might have suggested the limitation of our knowledge. Put simply, we do not know the extent of what we know. -
The Association of Education in a New Society And
Lee et al. BMC Public Health (2021) 21:766 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-021-10770-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The association of education in a new society and social support from the education with the health of North Korean defectors: a cross-sectional study Jihyun Lee1,2, Yui Park1, Dong-Hun Han2,3* , Ji Won Yoo4, Wenlian Zhou5, Pearl Kim6 and Jay J. Shen6* Abstract Background: The number of North Korean defectors (NKDs) escaping to South Korea has increased. The health status of NKDs is an essential factor for a successful settlement into South Korean society. However, no studies have been conducted on the health status of NKDs in terms of education and social support. The aim of this study was to determine the associations of education and social support with the self-rated health status among NKDs. Methods: This study utilized data gained from face-to-face interviews with 126 NKDs. A multivariable logistic regression and path analysis were performed to assess the effects of education in South Korea and social support on their self-rated health status and to explore the complex relationships between direct and indirect effects of the variables. Results: NKDs who did not experience regular education in South Korea responded that they were in poor health compared to their counterpart (OR = 5.78). Although a direct association between education in South Korea and self-rated health was not shown, there was an indirect path from education in South Korea to self-rated health through social support. Conclusions: Participation in regular education in South Korea is important for the health status of NKDs. -
Violence in South Korean Schools and the Relevance of Peace Education

ABSTRACT This thesis aims to explore and analyse the culture of violence which is, arguably, deeply embedded in South Korean schooling and to suggest how this can be re- directed towards a culture of peace through peace education. In order to achieve this goal, fieldwork was conducted for a year, employing critical ethnography and case studies. Data gained from this fieldwork were analysed and discussed within the conceptual frameworks of Bourdieu’s symbolic violence and peace education theories – Hick’s defining peace in particular. This finding of this thesis fall into four parts: some selected cultural elements of everyday school life; symbolized and institutionalized violence; authoritative school management and increasingly atypical employment; and how to change this culture of violence to peace: possibilities of peace education? These findings are discussed in relation to theories to show the ways in which socio-historical backgrounds and ideologies (e.g. -

Many men died and many more were wounded in a conflict which could have been avoided if the free world had not been ignorant of the ways of the Communists. Today, many years after the armored spearhead of Communism first drove across the 38th parallel, 350 ,0 0 0 men are still standing ready to repell that same enemy. It is hoped that this study will throw light on the errors which grew to war so that they might not be repeated at another time in a different place. -

Unification is a significant issue in South Korea, especially in light of the recent summits between South and North Korea. This study is rooted in principles of peace education to promote peaceful discourse related to unification issues. Unification education plays an important role in K-12 education in South Korea; however, it is not prioritized at the university level. This case study, which included open-ended surveys, interviews, and focus groups, explored South Korean university students’ (n=33) views of creating short-term classes on unification and the types of topics that they think should be taught in these classes. Primary results indicate that most participants expressed interest in taking short-term classes on unification issues. The paper also includes practical implications that can be considered when developing short-term classes on unification in South Korean universities. -

Created when an increasing number of women turned to the scholarly arts, in particular painting and poetry, these paintings documented the more receptive attitude of literati toward talented women and their support in the social and artistic lives of female intellectuals. These pictures show the women cultivating themselves through literati activities and poetic meditation in nature or gardens, common tropes in portraits of male scholars. The predominantly male patrons, painters, and colophon authors all took part in the formation of the women’s public identities as poets and artists; the first two determined the visual representations, and the third, through writings, confirmed and elaborated on the designated identities. -
